Hi,
reading a recent article on Webmasterworld about adding sitemap and rss to google news, I decided to submit the press release category of my site to google news.

First problem: google news is picking up the wrong articles which are not neccessarily press release.

Second problem: I don't understand how to submit an rss feed to google news. I went to my webmaster area, but don't know how to do this.

Advices appreciated,
Thanks,

Brakkar

Hi,
Yes,
from this page it says: "5. From the Add a Sitemap page, choose "News Sitemap" from the menu and enter the Sitemap URL."

When I go in my site sitemap page and choose to add, I only have two options: General and mobile site map, no news site map.

My site was included in google news, I can verify when I do a search on site:mysite.com from google news.

So the problem, is that i don't have a way to specify my news sitemap or news rss feed to google news?!

Cordially,
Brakkar
